When they found that His coat, or under-robe, was seamless, and woven in one piece, they cast lots for that, so that it should not be torn or divided, as God had said, so long ago. In this picture we do not see the Cross on which our dear Lord was crucified, but it must have been very near to the men. There was a piece of parchment nailed on the Cross; and though Pilate had said, "I find no fault in Him," yet when he sat down to write his accusation on the parchment, he was obliged to put something; and he wrote, in Hebrew, and in Greek, and in Latin, "JESUS OF NAZARETH—THE KING OF THE JEWS." This writing was read by many people, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near to Jerusalem, and many were passing backwards and forwards at this Passover time. The cruel Jews, who had urged Pilate to crucify Jesus, wanted him to take the writing down from the Cross. They said, "Do not say that He is the King of the Jews! But say that He said He was!" But Pilate would not alter it. "What I have written, I have written," he said. So when Jesus died, this was His accusation—that He is King! Then the rulers who were standing by mocked him, saying, "He saved others, Himself He cannot save! Let Him come down from the Cross!" Perhaps some of you who read this may think that it was the cruel nails which held His dear hands fast, so that he could not come down? But that was not the reason—oh no! It was love that made the Son of God stay there; love to you, and to me. "He gave His life a ransom for us." He stayed there that He might die for us; that His precious Blood should be shed to pay the price of our sins. No one can tell the depth of woe and loneliness which Jesus suffered, while the load of our sins rested upon Him; but the more we understand it, the more we shall love Him, for His great love. XX. THE LAST SUPPER THE night before our Lord was crucified for us, He gathered His twelve disciples together, and sat down to eat the Passover Supper with them in the Upper Room. And as they were eating, Jesus was troubled in spirit, and told them that one of them would betray Him. Close to His side, leaning on His bosom, was the disciple whom Jesus loved; and Peter beckoned to him to ask the Lord who it was who should betray Him. So John, leaning on Jesus' bosom, whispered, "Who is it, Lord?" And Jesus answered, "It is he to whom I give a sop when I have dipped it." And He gave the sop to Judas Iscariot. And as they were eating, "Jesus took bread, and gave thanks and brake it, and gave unto them, saying: 'This is My Body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of Me.' Likewise also the cup, after supper, saying: 'This cup is the New Testament (covenant) in My Blood which is shed for you.'" And from that Last Supper before His death till now, nearly two thousand years after, in one unbroken chain, week after week, those who love Christ have partaken of this Holy Feast, in remembrance of Him till He comes back again.
